For example:
Download this ZIP file: http://dslstats.me.uk/files/dslstats32W-6.5.zip
Everything in the ZIP file is in a directory “dslstats32W-6.5”.
However when I extract using right click “Extract Here” the name of the directory created is “2W-6.5” !
I am running PA 22.00.09 on Windows 11. I have seen the same happen with some other kinds of archive too.
Hello!
Is there currently no portable version of PA2023 available?
(When) do you plan to release one?
Thanks!
If I compress a folder to a .pa using right click, Compress to folder.pa and use the new Windows 11 menu then the Options, Configuration, Miscellaneous, Use normal relative path setting is always enabled.
But I like this option disabled so I have to use the old style menu in order to get PA to compress a folder in the way I wish.
Just tried using the Modern (Windows 10) Icon set and seeing a few missing icons in both PowerArchiver Burner and PowerArchiver Encryption screens . They are all there in the Minimalistik icon set and the only difference I can see is the former is blue and the latter grey. In version 22.00.9

PA 22.00.09 shows a nag screen, when I try to open some setting windows. I have already PA 2023 Toolbox and PA shows, that it’s licensed in the info dialog.

I’m looking forward to deploying PowerArchiver 2023 to my users. Can you tell us when the MSI will be available for download and distribution?
Thanks.
Hi there,
there were some security issues fixed in 7zip:
https://www.zerodayinitiative.com/advisories/ZDI-23-1165/
https://www.zerodayinitiative.com/advisories/ZDI-23-1164/
As it seems, that PowerArchiver and PACL use the 7zip libraries, could you please update them to the latest version?
Hi,
From where I get PAVD2023.EXE? PowerArchiver 2023 tries to open it.
But it seems, it tries to download PAVD2021.EXE.
Thanks
I noticed that the version of ZPAQ used is older than the latest released 7.15 https://mattmahoney.net/dc/zpaq.html also there seems to be a newer fork that adds several features https://github.com/fcorbelli/zpaqfranz
It would be useful to implement this latest version (it also maintains the same syntax and behavior as the latest official release if used the -715 flag) and add when opening a zpaq file a choice of the version of the files to show (e.g. as dummy folders represented the various versions present). Since any previous changes are stored with this format, it is possible to extract a snapshot of a certain date/version.
If I open a password-protected zipper file (created with WinRAR but I think that’s irrelevant), open it with PowerArchiver and run “Remove Encryption” on the same file, then reopen it and add a password with “Encrypt Archive,” the resulting archive will be protected with the old ZipCrypto algorithm and not AES as indicated.
(this can be verified, for example, by trying to open the archive files with Windows Explorer, which does not support the AES algorithm)
PA 21.00.18 running on Windows 7 64 bit.
I made a big .PA file and thought I’d check it was made correctly with Menu / Actions / Test.
Discovered:
a) PA always issues a UAC prompt to do this!
b) PA always says there are many errors in PA files.
Unsolved E-Mail problem

My OS: Windows XP Home Edition, SP3
The version number and date of the program: PowerArchiver 2019 Standard 19.00.47 (05/2019)How to reproduce the problem
I have two accounts on my computer. One Michael, and the other Admin.
I logged in as Michael (normal account with limited rightes).
Open Microsoft Explorer and select the files I want to compress.
Click the right mouse button to display the pop-up menu.
Click on «Compress & E-Mail “olb.zip”».
I see a dialog box that shows the movement of the zip process. After the zip ends, the mail client window opens, but as soon as it opens it closes immediately.
See the video clip that demonstrates this. -
This problem, which I experienced, also was in the admin account.

Hi @Michael72,
Sorry for the wait, I have finally set up Outlook Express on the XP test machine so that it works and can test this issue.
After testing, works fine here. After selecting a few files, then choosing Compress & Email, the new email window opened and I was able to send the email with the zip file attached. The email arrived successfully.The files that were compressed in your video, are they on a local disk or a network disk?
I see that they are on disk I: so would like to check if it’s on a local or networked disc as that could be the reason.Thanks!
-
Disk I: is the local disk on which the OS is installed. It happened because I reinstalled the system. The files are in my account. Once again, I checked the problem with the administrator account. The problem is the same. I reset the archiver’s default settings - the problem remains.
-
Additional Information:
To reproduce the problem, load Light Solitude skin by clicking on “View > Skins > Modern Windows 10 > Light Solitude” from the menu.
If you load Classic Simple skin by clicking on “View > Skins > Classic Toolbar > Classic Simple (fastest)”, it works fine. -
@Mili did you manage to reproduce this one? Thanks.
-
@spwolf I am afraid that I will not be able to correctly understand the question, because I speak English badly. I will try to summarize my last post. I switched to using the Classic Simple (fastest) skin and now I do not have such a problem. But if I switch to the Light Solitude skin, then I begin to experience this problem. All of the above is also true for version 19.00.50.
P.S. I apologize. After I gave the answer, I realized that the message was not to me. Now I understand everything.
